£100 million to revamp local sports facilities across UK

Rugby, handshake and team, exercise and training, cooperation and sunrise. Shaking hands, sports partnership and happy athlete group in agreement, solidarity and workout, fitness and collaboration.

People across the UK will benefit from upgraded sports facilities in their local area thanks to £100 million invested by government.

Working together with the Premier League, The FA and Government’s Football Foundation in England, the Cymru Football Foundation in Wales, and the Football Associations in Scotland and Northern Ireland, the funding is expected to support hundreds of new and improved pitches, changing rooms, goalposts and floodlights to improve access to sport and physical activity for local communities. 

It will be targeted at deprived areas and support greater access and participation levels among under-represented people including women and girls, ethnic minority groups and disabled players.
